This paper summarizes the experience of Professor TU Jinwen in the staged treatment of oculomotor nerve palsy （ONP） based on the theory of qi collaterals. In the acute onset stage， the key pathogenesis is triggered by wind toxin and disharmony of the qi collaterlas， for which the treatment should prioritize the elimination of pathogenic factors， with therapeutic principles of dispelling wind and eliminating toxin， boosting qi and harmonizing collaterals， using modified Qianzheng Powder （牵正散） plus Buzhong Yiqi Decoction （补中益气汤）. In the remission and recovery stage， the key pathogenesis is stagnation of blood stasis and damage to the qi collaterals， it is recommended to treat the branch， with principles of boosting qi and activating blood， resolving stasis and unblocking collaterals， using the modified Buyang Huanwu Decoction （补阳还五汤）. In the sequela and protracted stage， the key pathogenesis is depletion of the liver， spleen， and kidney with non-nourishment of the qi collaterals； the treatment should focus on addressing the root cause， with principles of fortifying the spleen and boosting qi， tonifying the liver and kidney， using the modified Sijunzi Decoction （四君子汤） combined with Qiju Dihuang Pill （杞菊地黄丸）.

AIM:To investigate the prevalence and associated factors of comorbid myopia and scoliosis among primary and junior school students in Binhu District, Wuxi, China.METHODS:A stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select students from 10 primary and junior schools in Binhu District for visual acuity testing, scoliosis examination, and a questionnaire survey on related factors. The relationship between scoliosis and myopia was detected using univariate analysis. A binary multivariable logistic regression model was applied to analyze the risk factors associated with comorbid myopia and scoliosis.RESULTS: A total of 17 951 students were selected, including 8948(49.85%)boys and 9003(50.15%)girls; 9784(54.50%)primary school students and 8167(45.50%)junior school students. The detection rates of myopia, scoliosis, and comorbidity were 68.30%, 2.95%, and 2.76%, respectively. The comorbidity rate was higher in girls(3.78%)than in boys(1.74%). Junior school students(3.67% in Grade 7-9)had a higher total comorbidity detection rate than primary school students(2.00% in Grade 4-6; all P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that being in Grade 7-9 [odds ratio(OR)=4.43, 95% confidence interval(CI): 2.36-7.85], spending 2-3 h(OR=1.46, 95%CI: 1.02-2.16)or ≥3 h(OR=1.5, 95%CI: 1.21-2.55)on homework or reading after school, engaging in >60 min of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity >6 days per week(OR=1.39, 95%CI: 1.08-1.7), and not adjusting desk and chair height to match the student's height(OR=1.73, 95%CI: 1.2-2.25)were positively associated with comorbidity(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The prevalence of comorbid myopia and scoliosis among primary and junior school students in Binhu District of Wuxi is concerning. Reducing the time ofhomework or reading and writing after school and engaging in ≥60 min of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity at least three days per week may help lower the risk of comorbid myopia and scoliosis in this population.

Among them, 423 were d≤0.5 cm. 319 cases (235 males and 507 females) with 0.5

Objective:To analyze the perioperative risks and prognosis in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) complicated by Graves' disease (GD) .Methods:Clinical data of 880 DTC patients who underwent radical thyroidectomy at the Department of General Surgery, the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital between Jan. 2016 and Dec. 2022 was retrospectively collected. The cohort included 119 DTC patients with GD (hyperthyroid group) and 761 DTC patients with normal thyroid function without GD (normal group) . Use propensity score matching (PSM) was used to obtain cohorts with balanced baseline characteristics between the hyperthyroid and normal groups. Perioperative risks and prognos were compared between the two groups.Results:For perioperative risk comparison, after 1∶2 matching, 116 patients were included in the hyperthyroid group and 232 patients in the normal group. The operation time was longer in the hyperthyroid group compared to normal group ([107.26±30.27]min vs. [96.45±32.51]min, P=0.003) . There were no statistical differences between the two groups in intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume or postoperative hospital stay ( P>0.05) . There were no statistical difference in the incidence of complications such as temporary or permanent hypoparathyroidism, temporary or permanent recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, and lymphatic leakage between the two groups. For prognostic comparison, after 1∶2 matching, 117 cases were included in the hyperthyroid group and 234 cases in the normal group. During follow-up period, 16 patients experienced DTC recurrence, including 5 cases in the hyperthyroid group and 11 cases in the normal group. There was no statistical difference in reccurence-free survival rates between the two groups (5-year RFS: 95.7% vs. 95.3%, P=0.907) . Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed GD was not the risk factor for DTC recurrence. Conclusions:With standardized and adequate preoperative preparation, the perioperative risks of DTC patients complicated by GD were not increased compared to patients without GD. Additionally, GD does not increase the risk of postoperative tumor recurrence in DTC patients.

Objective Investigate the clinical efficacy and application value of gasless trans-subclavian approach endoscopic surgery(GTAES)for the treatment of primary hyperparathyroidism(PHPT).Methods 55 PHPT patients who underwent unilateral parathyroid adenoma resection from January 2023 to October 2024 were absorbed.Based on surgical approaches,31 patients were divided into the traditional low-collar arc incision open surgery group(open group)and 24 patients were divided into gasless trans-subclavian approach endoscopic surgery group(endoscopic group).The perioperative data,anterior neck function recovery,and incision healing were compared between two groups.Results There were no significant differences in operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative drainage volume and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups(P＞0.05).The preoperative blood calcium levels of the endoscopic group and the open group were(2.68±0.10)mmol/L and(2.63±0.16)mmol/L,respectively.The blood calcium levels on the first day after surgery were(2.39±0.12)mmol/L and(2.36±0.16)mmol/L,respectively.Preoperative parathyroid hormone(PTH)was 27.55(110.05,155.75)pg/ml in endoscopic group and 137.00(107.00,210.30)pg/ml in open group,respectively.PTH on the first day after surgery was 18.98(12.64,23.53)pg/ml and 13.85(7.36,23.23)pg/ml,respectively.Blood calcium and PTH in each group 1 day after surgery decreased compared with that before surgery,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).There were no postoperative complications such as hoarseness,bleeding and incision infection in both groups.Postoperative hand and foot numbness:5 cases(20.8％)in endoscopic group and 8 patients(25.8％)in the open group,there was no significant difference between the two groups(P=0.667).There was no significant difference in the score of neck pain 3 days after surgery between the two groups(P＞0.05).The score of swallowing tension[(1.92±1.06)points compared with(2.77±1.38)points,P=0.015]and the score of anterior neck discomfort[(1.63±0.88)points compared with(2.35±1.33)points,P=0.018]in the endoscopic group one month after surgery were better than those in the open group.There was no significant difference in the score of neck scar scale between the two groups 3 months after surgery(P＞0.05).VAS score of incision satisfaction was(9.08±0.88)in endoscopic group and(8.19±1.30)in open group,and the endoscopic group was better than the open group,the difference was statistically significant(P=0.004).Conclusion For PHPT patients caused by unilateral parathyroid adenoma confirmed through preoperative localization examination,GTAES is a safe and effective surgical approach,which offers unique advantages in intraoperative lesion identification,cosmetic outcomes of the incision,and preservation of anterior neck function,providing a new surgical option for PHPT patients.

Background::An evidence gap still exists regarding the efficacy and safety of tegoprazan in patients with erosive esophagitis (EE) in China. This study aimed to verify the efficacy and safety of tegoprazan vs. esomeprazole in patients with EE in China. Methods::This study was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel, active-controlled, non-inferiority phase III trial of patients with EE randomized 1:1 to tegoprazan 50 mg/day vs. esomeprazole 40 mg/day. This study was conducted in 32 sites between October 24, 2018 and October 18, 2019. The primary endpoint was the cumulative endoscopic healing rate at week 8. The secondary endpoint included endoscopic healing rate at week 4, changes in the reflux disease questionnaire (RDQ) and gastroesophageal reflux disease health-related quality of life (GERD-HRQL) scores, and symptom improvement. Results::A total of 261 patients were randomized: 132 to the tegoprazan group and 129 to the esomeprazole group. The cumulative endoscopic healing rate at 8 weeks in the tegoprazan group was non-inferior to that of the esomeprazole group (91.1% vs. 92.8%, difference: -1.7%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -8.5%, 5.0%, P = 0.008). There were no statistically significant differences in the changes in RDQ (total, severity, and frequency) and GERD-HRQL scores between the two groups (all P >0.05). The percentages of days without symptoms, including daytime and nighttime symptoms based on patients' diaries, were similar between the two groups (all P >0.05). In the tegoprazan and esomeprazole groups, 71.5% (93/130) and 61.7% (79/128) of the participants reported adverse events (AEs), 2.3% and 0 experienced serious AEs, while 70.0% and 60.2% had treatment-emergent AEs, respectively. Conclusion::Tegoprazan 50 mg/day demonstrated non-inferior efficacy in healing EE, symptom improvement, and quality of life, and it has similar tolerability compared with esomeprazole 40 mg/day.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Cat allergens are among the most significant environmental factors contributing to the onset of allergic diseases. The increasing global prevalence of pet cat ownership in recent years has been associated with a rise in the incidence of allergic diseases linked to cat allergens. Research has demonstrated that pet cats can trigger type I hypersensitivity-related conditions, such as allergic rhinitis, asthma, and atopic dermatitis, in atopic individuals through allergens found in their dander, saliva, urine, and other substances. The precise mechanism by which cat allergens induce immune tolerance remains incompletely understood. Furthermore, due to the complexities of multiple sensitizations and cross-reactivity, the interactions between cat allergens and other pet allergens (e.g., dog allergens) and air pollutants in the development of allergic diseases are not yet fully elucidated. Consequently, this article reviews recent advancements in the epidemiology of cat allergen sensitization, the underlying mechanisms, exposure and sensitization risks, component-resolved diagnostics, treatment, and prevention, with the aim of providing references for clinical strategies in the prevention, diagnosis, and management of these conditions.
